there is a difference between making an extension on your home or a film to having people force you to do it by filming you against your will or sending in developers ... doh ...
well yes if you hodge bodge it all together into a mish mash ... there is a difference between making an extension on your home and having developers come blundering in with sightless giant thug eyes just wielding their technical equipment willy nilly randomly slashing away at peoples landscapes especially if its in a conservation area ...
We love the way she (and Dunham), in a generation of oversharers, less "surrenders" her privacy to an audience, more "inflicts" it upon it. Dunham kept a diary as a child, but, she told the New Yorker, eventually abandoned it. "I was like, 'What's the point, if no one's reading it?'" she explained. "I would leave it out on the counter, on purpose, for my parents."
this paragraph is rather worrying as it suggests that girls don't want privacy and that they display their sexuality for the entertainment of anyone that can get footage of it ? this article is bordering on child abuse ...
In the context of all this ? all this rawness and hilarity and truths about the horrors of youth ? the title itself even feels radical. Is it too much to say that Dunham has reclaimed the word? A noisy, "I am Girl, hear me roar"?
very sarcastic I don't think you love her at all ?
If one were to print off the pages of internet devoted to Girls it would take two forests. Even the criticism has been critiqued. One point that led to reams of discourse was that Dunham had failed to write in any non-white characters; another that her characters were all wealthy, all from privileged families. These are not points Dunham is unaware of; before they decided on the name Girls, in fact, when HBO was still calling it the "Untitled Lena Dunham Project", she joked that a better name would be the "Entitled Lena Dunham Project".
ok so because she's a privileged white girl she's noisy and provocative and doesnt deserve any privacy ?
It's a programme that reverberates even after its credits have rolled, even an ocean away. It feels alive.
well thats one positive comment ?
"Even great reviews will be like: chubby, portly, overweight?" In talking about it, she encourages us to talk about it ? about her body, our bodies, bodies on TV and the complicated rules that surround an un-siliconed breast.
she encourages you to talk about it does she? a young girl does not encourage you to talk about her body ? and your comments there are rather objectifying and exploitative ? another glib little article written by someone in between preparing hors d'oevres and the main and with rather too much cheapo plonk down them ?
